Vancouver FC to Honour 100 Years of Langley Soccer with Commemorative Logo on Match Shorts

Vancouver FC will wear Langley United Soccer Association's commemorative "100 Years" logo on its match shorts for the remainder of the 2026 Canadian Premier League season, marking a century of grassroots soccer in Langley and celebrating one of the most enduring community sport organizations in British Columbia.

The on-kit tribute is the centrepiece of a renewed strategic partnership between Vancouver FC and LUSA, bringing together professional and grassroots soccer through a shared commitment to community, youth development, and the continued growth of the game.

This
partnership
represents
the
foundation
of
our
club's
ambition
to
help
grow
the
game.
We
are
privileged
to
play
in
a
community
made
better
by
over
100
years
of
collective
commitment
to
giving
youth
opportunities
through
soccer.
We
look
forward
to
continuing
the
tradition
in
partnership
with
LUSA
and
are
grateful
for
their
ongoing
impact
in
soccer
and
beyond.
Bill Cooper, Chief Commercial Officer, Vancouver Football Club

Established in 1926, LUSA has served thousands of families across Langley for over a century and remains one of the most influential community soccer organizations in British Columbia. Through this partnership, Vancouver FC and LUSA will work together to strengthen the connection between grassroots and professional soccer while creating new opportunities for youth players, volunteers, fans and families throughout the community.

Collaborations between Vancouver FC and LUSA are highlighted by robust volunteer appreciation programs including fan favourite “Volunteer of the Match” ceremonial coin toss  during Vancouver FC home matches, and a special “Key to the Stadium” launching this June in honour of LUSA’s centennial falling in a World Cup year. These programs are supplemented by extensive Community activations throughout the season, featuring VFC players and staff volunteering their support at key LUSA events.

As
we
celebrate
our
centennial
in
a
FIFA
World
Cup
year,
it
is
fitting
that
Langley's
community
club
and
Langley's
professional
club
stand
together
in
growing
the
game.
Every
young
player
who
pulls
on
a
LUSA
jersey
should
be
able
to
look
at
Vancouver
FC
and
see
a
pathway,
an
opportunity,
and
a
future
in
soccer
right
here
at
home.
Together,
we
are
helping
build
a
lasting
soccer
culture
in
Langley
that
supports
players
at
every
stage
of
their
journey
and
reinforces
our
shared
belief
in
Soccer
for
Life.
Marcel Horn, Executive Director, Langley United Soccer Association

The partnership comes at a pivotal moment for soccer in Canada, with growing momentum surrounding the sport ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Together, Vancouver FC and LUSA look to continue building a lasting soccer culture in Langley that connects every level of the game, from youth development to the professional stage.

Additional partnership activations and community initiatives will be announced throughout the season.
